Grilled cheese sandwiches just have to go with tomato soup, but what if you are out? You don’t need a tin of Campbell’s to go with your cheese sandwiches . . . and you don’t have to spend hours slaving over the stove. In fact, with a couple tins of tomato paste and some other simple ingredients, you’re good to go.
